Chapter 819 Outbreak [1st Update]

"..."

The conference room was completely silent.

The sages fell into a mysterious silence, exchanging bewildered glances.

This distance, isn't it like being family?

Xiu's lips twitched: "What did I tell you? You're a magnet that attracts sages, and you still won't admit it."

“As I said, I’m not a magnet that attracts sages.” Ying Zijin raised her eyes. “I’m a magnet that attracts sand sculptures, and it just so happens that there’s a sage among these sand sculptures.”

build:"……"

He suspected he was being subtly insulted.

"Since we're at home, let's go out and see." Fu Yunshen stood up, looking lazy. "Let's see which 'lucky idiot' won the prize."

Upon hearing this, the others quickly got up and followed him out.

Only Fu Yunshen and Ying Zijin knew that the Wise Emperor had been killed eight times and reincarnated.

But this does not prove that the emperor was without any problems.

It's more likely that the black skull threw out a fog bomb.

Sometimes, a self-inflicted injury can be more deceptive than a genuine act of self-inflicted suffering.

In the garden.

The butler was chatting with Xize, Jiang Ran, and Qin Lingyan.

Nishizawa is seeking advice from the butler on how to manage a household.

“Mr. Xize, someone is trying to swindle you out of your money. You must be careful,” the butler said seriously. “Otherwise, you might lose more than just a few pieces of gold; you could lose your entire fortune.”

Xize choked: "This... can't be that bad, can it?"

If it weren't for the fact that the third-class disabled woman shared the same profession as his boss, with his intelligence, would he have let her take his gold?

“Of course, I’ve recently studied a few scams in China. There’s this one called ‘pig butchering scam,’ which is about swindling money, sex, and emotions.” The butler became even more serious. “I wonder which heartless and shameless scoundrel has swindled your money? Let me think of a solution for you.”

Upon hearing this, Xize became interested: "Fifth Month, she stayed with you guys a while ago."

The butler immediately changed his tune: "Miss Yue, you've done a good job lying!"

Nishizawa: "???"

“Brother Laurent, just give up. Fifth Month’s tricks are a family heirloom of the Fifth family. They’ve fooled so many people in the capital.” Jiang Ran said, turning his head.

Upon seeing the girl, he exclaimed in surprise, "Father Ying, Father, you're awake?!"

Xize immediately turned around, still worried: "Boss, are you alright?"

Ying Zijin didn't respond, but just looked at him thoughtfully.

"Big...big boss." Xize felt a chill run down his spine from the look in her eyes. "Why are you staring at me like that?"

Is his boss plotting to help that third-class disabled man seduce him and deceive him emotionally?

He hated that he wasn't Ying Zijin's youngest disciple.

"I'm fine, I just took a nap." Ying Zijing nodded. "Have you been having dreams lately?"

"Dream? What dream?" Xize paused for a moment, then suddenly realized, "Oh, boss, the medicine you gave me is quite effective. I had dreams every day for the past week."

"After taking your medicine, I only dream about once a week at most, which is much better."

Ying Zijin nodded slightly and turned her head: "Xize is the Wise Emperor."

Norton raised his eyes.

"Pfft—" Xize spat out a mouthful of water, pointed at himself, and asked blankly, "What am I?"

Jiang Ran heard it clearly and was shocked: "Holy crap?!"

Why are all the people around him wise?

Qin Lingyan also became withdrawn. He looked dejected and sad: "Old Fu, you're so strong, can I play the role of a sage for a while?"

"I don't stand close contact with single people." Fu Yun Shen slowly peeled his paw off, his peach blossom eyes glancing at him indifferently. "You still want to play?"

"No, no, no, I was just saying." Qin Lingyan sighed. "I know you all have heavy responsibilities."

Outsiders only see the sage's extraordinary abilities and lofty status.

Little did they know that they would have to use their physical bodies to withstand all the disasters.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Qin Lingyan knew he couldn't do that.

"No way?" Xize caught his breath, puzzled. "Boss, I went to the Sage's Academy with you. We walked around the whole place, but I didn't regain any memories."

“Because your strength is already very weak, the Sage’s Academy alone is no longer enough to restore your strength.” Ying Zijin pondered, “Sir, take him outside the city to the fifth ancestral home.”

"I'll teach you a few feng shui formations; you can buy the materials from Yueyue."

Fu Yunshen nodded: "Okay."

Then he frowned: "But I can leave you here—"

“Mr. D,” Ying Zijin raised an eyebrow, “we’re going to have a fight now, and we don’t know who will win or lose yet.”

Fu Yunshen narrowed his peach blossom eyes and smiled, "Then naturally I lose."

Qin Lingyu also laughed: "Little Destiny is now an all-around sage, which greatly increases our chances of winning."

They possess martial arts skills and can concoct medicine.

And then there's the most terrifying Divine Calculation of the World.

"Young Miss, something terrible has happened again!" The butler suddenly spoke, his expression anxious. "The Academy of Sages has issued a notice saying that the Academy of Engineering has secretly manufactured a large-scale weapon of mass destruction, intending to destroy the world city and even the seven continents and four oceans."

"Now we must abolish the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and all its academicians must be executed!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.

"It seems some people still haven't learned their lesson," Ying Zijing said calmly. "I'm going out for a bit. Norton, bring my aunt here. You all stay with the Lyinger family and don't go out."

After she finishes dealing with matters at the Academy of Engineering, she will find a time to send Suwen, Lu Yuan, and the others to China.

Norton clicked his tongue. "Okay."

"Did you hear that, you piece of trash? I've become a sage too." Xize got excited now. "Once I regain my memories and power, let's have a match and see who wins."

Norton crossed his arms, raised an eyebrow, and smiled, "Alright, but if I remember correctly, in terms of combat strength, you're still no match for me."

The Wise Emperor and the Wise Empress have the same special ability: manipulation.

Although the Emperor is not a combat-type Sage, his special abilities allow him to become the core of the Twenty-Two Sages.

The emperor represents "rule" and "absolute leadership".

After the emperor was gone, it was the empress's turn next.

It was also because the emperor disappeared after the Holy War that the Wise Queen Sara Victoria was able to take sole control of the Wise House.

"We'll see." Xize straightened his hair, glanced at Fu Yunshen, and said with a complicated expression, "Let's go."

Fu Yunshen patted his shoulder and chuckled softly, "Mm."

The news that the Chinese Academy of Engineering is to be shut down has caused a huge uproar on the W website.

It was like a thunderbolt striking.

The Academy of Engineering, established in the early 15th century, enabled the world's city to enter the technological age more quickly.

Subsequently, technology developed rapidly, and people's lives became more and more convenient.

Aerospace technology is already very advanced in cities around the world, and ordinary people can buy tickets to travel in space.

The Academy of Engineering holds a very important place in the hearts of the residents of the world's city.

On what grounds should the Chinese Academy of Engineering be abolished? I disagree!

I agree, those people at the Academy of Engineering are crazy. I've seen them take laser cannons out into the street with my own eyes!

What if robots develop self-awareness one day? Then technology will destroy us!

[Hilarious! I was just saying this was something the Empress orchestrated to eliminate dissidents. Don't you all understand what happened at the New Year's celebration?]

[Whispering] If it weren't for Her Majesty the Queen, who would stabilize the climate of the World City? Don't you remember what's recorded in the history books?

The former World City was a land of endless yellow earth, where even desert plants couldn't survive. It was all changed by Her Majesty the Queen.

This is indeed a problem.

The W website has also split into two factions, who are arguing endlessly about it.

Sinai panicked immediately. She jumped down, grabbed her clothes, and ran outside.

She had barely run out the door when her feet left the ground.

A soft voice came from above: "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to the engineering institute." Sinai struggled for a moment. "Put me down, don't carry me like this!"

Once she has fully recovered, she will definitely stay away from this big bad guy.

"What are you doing getting involved?" Norton lifted her up with one hand. "What business is it of yours to interfere in matters between sages?"

Sinai looked somber: "But my teacher and many classmates are still here; they can't be hurt."

She suddenly seemed to remember something: "You are a sage, can you help me? I can repay you in some way!"

“My current responsibility is to protect you and your family.” Norton glanced at her. “Your niece has taken care of it, so you can rest assured. I’ll take you back to the Laneger family.”

The wheel of fortune now turns not to that frail little girl of the past.
